Russell Westbrook shouldn't be the Sixth Man of the Year favorite, but he creates betting value on the award

Westbrook actually averaged more potential assists per game last season (13.8) than he is this season (12.9), yet he's averaging more assists this season (7.5 vs. 7.1) because his teammates are making more of the shots he creates. If you trust the voters to pick the best bench player this season to win this award, it's going to be Brogdon.
